So far I've had three people tell me that we're getting an extra hour of sleep

[milestogo]

with the time change this weekend.

SPRING AHEAD, FALL BACK.

We lose an hour AFAIK.

1. Maybe those 3 people just compensate by totally IGNORING the clock Sunday mornings!

2. earth's rotation gonna suddenly change?

Still roughly 24 hours, I think.

3. Must be Dumpsters.

4. Is it to night? So we wake up an hour early tomorrow?

5. They probably also support tRump.

6. Spring Break started Friday. It will be good that everyone gets used to the loss of an hour

before we start that final 4th quarter session!


When we come back we have 44 class days to the end of the 2018-2019 school year!

7. There's lots of stupid out there.

8. Getting to work an hour late or an hour early will fix that

[jberryhill]

9. No. Fall forward, spring back

[Iggo]

10. Even though they got it backwards, unless they work Sunday, it doesn't really matter, right?

They can sleep as long as they want.

But if you really want to explain it to them, the easiest way I've found is this: The day is 24 hours. When we move the clock back an hour, we do the same hour over again. That's 25 hours. When we move the clock forward, we skip an hour. That's 23 hours.

11. I just had to remind my #1-son who has to get up at four a.m. for his 12-hour shift.

Glad I did because he didn't realize. It was sad.

12. oh come on now we don't loose anything Saturday night.

Its only Monday morning when you go to work that all hell breaks out.
Either your an hour late or an hour early. Spring late Fall early - that's the one to remember.

Doesn't happen for a week or two here.

And your three people will be walking around yawning for a few days.

*on edit--I just checked. It's March 31 here. Yay, three full weeks of only 6 hours of time difference with Dallas!

14. My dogs never switched over from last summer.

They wake me up at 4 so they can eat and go out. This morning Joey woke me up at 5:01. Now I can wake up at 5 instead if 4.

15. I have a clock that I didn't know how to change in the fall so I just left it.

Had to remind myself every morning that it was really an hour earlier.

Looks like its correct again.
